Stop treating COVID as something it is not. If the politicians stopped their crap and the news stoped reporting it would be gone over night. Yes, it is real and people will get sick but nothing like how they make it out to be. Also, start paying attention to businesses you visit, there are COVID measure that will never go away. As I type this I am in a restaurant, at the entrance is a high end, permanently installed IR camera scanning everyone, its not going away. Also businesses who invested in fancy plexiglass shields are not taking them down either.
I have seen several businesses that have removed those idiotic shields and that other nonsense.
I guess that it all depends on where you live.
